April 2, 2010, Newsletter Issue #24: The Drunk Driver

Tip of the Week

One of the worst things you can do after drinking is get behind the wheel of a car. Drinking reduces your ability to react and impairs your judgment. Your risk of getting in an accident goes up significantly, which makes you a hazard to yourself and others. Drinking and driving also puts you in a position where you could be arrested for drinking and driving. A DUI is bad for your record and could cause your insurance rates to go up significantly. Some insurers may not be willing to provide you with auto insurance after one DUI. In addition, you may have to pay fines associated with the DUI and possibly spend time in jail. Your best bet is to designate a driver who doesn’t drink or take a cab home.
